This week on Maker Update: a kazoo with auto-tune, Particle goes big, a new spin on the macropad, a lamp with a twist, and surfing with Neopixels.

This week on Maker Update: a peripheral with all the keys, a tuba with all the wubs, a classic click-wheel, and a guidebook to Huaqiangbei.

This week on Maker Update: trumpets that breathe fire, a pumpkin for typing, ready to roll couches, and a picture that’s worth a thousand balloons.

This week on Maker Update: adding a haptic kick to virtual reality, Arduino 2.0, a rotary cell phone to call your own, hardscrabble keyboards, rolling the dice, and better toast from machine learning.

This week on Maker Update, a Neopixel puzzle project, tickling the toe beans, machine learning plushies with micro:bit, and a cyborg funhouse.

This week on Maker Update, an IoT chess board, turning a 3D printer into a micro factory, the art of epoxy, a palm full of atari punk, interactive origami and plugging in to the data blaster.

This month on the Adafruit edition of Maker Update: a beacon for lost keys, a peek inside Adabox 15, spooky pianos, gaming with neopixels, more pins per pin, and a single purpose keyboard.

Right off the bat, let me acknowledge that I am by no means an expert on Raspberry Pi. If anything, I’m a beginner with Pi who was fortunate enough to find a sponsor for this video who valued a beginner’s perspective on things.

WD Labs is the sponsor for this video. They sent me their full Raspberry Pi kit which they call the Compute Centre, which includes a Pi 3, keyboard, case, mouse, power supply, a microSD card that plugs into the Pi preinstalled with software, and a hard drive.
